Power distribution for modern infrastructure
Distribution boards Distribution boards form the basis of electrical installation in every facility, ensuring optimum e iciency and safety. Legrand’s modular power distribution enclosures – designed to the highest quality, safety and environmental standards – provide dependable operation, flexibility and ease of installation. Legrand XL3 4000 and XL3 6300 enclosures are available in various dimensions , providing flexibility for precise configuration. The modular enclosures can be joined side-by-side or back-to- back and each panel can be replaced by a door if required for installation. This optimised distribution system o ers easy assembly, eliminates the need to create special connections upstream and enables time savings in installation as appliances can simply be connected on pre-assembled units. Trunking supports, wire guide rings and cable tie bars facilitate wiring and, for enhanced convenience, all side walls and top and bottom plates can be assembled aer wiring. Support services Legrand specialists advise on critical power projects in diverse industries throughout Southern Africa, o ering comprehensive solutions, from planning to installation. The company is committed to working closely with customers to ensure sustainability, energy e iciency and optimum performance of equipment for every installation. The South African business has entered into service agreements with strategic partners, enabling the team to o er direct installation and aer-sales services. Legrand specialists work closely with partners to provide in house designs, specifications and critical power solutions, ensuring suitable products are selected for every installation. The Legrand team of highly skilled engineers and technicians, in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban, also o ers services in Botswana, Namibia and Zambia. A dependable aer-sales service, with a dedicated service support line, includes Tier 3 support to datacentres. Legrand’s environmentally responsible approach to constantly changing project requirements is enhanced through the company’s support services and solutions plan. This initiative enhances ongoing technological developments of the company’s product portfolio, in terms of energy e iciency, quality power supply, safety and aesthetics.
Legrand has expanded its critical power portfolio with integrated solutions designed for reliable, e icient, safe and flexible power distribution in diverse applications, including commercial buildings, healthcare facilities, data centres and industrial sites. As demand for dependable electrical infrastructure increases, Legrand focuses on delivering stable power distribution, addressing space constraints, operational continuity and energy e iciency. The company’s critical power solutions combine modular distribution design with high-e iciency upstream equipment, enabling designers and operators to adapt systems e iciently as operational requirements change. Track busways A central system in critical power is the latest generation Legrand Data Centre Track Busway technology, which addresses the operational pressures facing today’s high-density, AI-intensive computing environments. The Data Centre Track Busway system – engineered for reliability, safety and long-term e iciency – comprises modular, monitored power distribution infrastructure that supports scalable, fault-resilient data centre operations. Stand-out features of the Legrand Track Busway include advanced safety features, rapid tool-free installation, integrated intelligent monitoring and cost-e iciency. The system is designed to replace traditional cabling with a compact, expandable power rail that enables rapid configuration changes and branch expansion without interrupting supply. The flat profile design and compact installation clearances optimise overhead space, while supporting A and B busway configurations. Legrand’s Track Busway, with current ratings from 160 A to 800 A, incorporates hot-swappable power meters at end feeds and tap-o boxes, allowing real-time monitoring of voltage, current, power, energy and joint temperatures. The meters support standard communication protocols, enabling integration into data centre infrastructure management platforms to provide operators with detailed visibility of rack- level power consumption. Eco-friendly transformers Legrand’s Green T.HE cast resin transformers are designed to reduce energy losses, minimise environmental impact, and optimise performance under demanding conditions. The transformers comply with stringent eco-design requirements and are engineered to achieve reduced no-load losses, so reducing energy consumption and associated emissions. The dry-type cast resin construction eliminates oil, reduces fire risk, and enables installation in sensitive environments Legrand Green T.HE transformers are available across a broad power range and various insulation classes, with configurations suitable for medium-voltage distribution up to 36 kV. The design incorporates reinforced insulation, high-performance magnetic cores and low partial discharge levels to extend service life and improve operational reliability. Environmental, climatic and fire behaviour classifications allow for the transformers to operate safely in high humidity, low temperature and increased fire-risk conditions.
